• Solid Imvexxy
  Revenue Growth. Net revenue generated by Imvexxy reached $2.0 million in Q1 2019 (+122%) compared to $0.9 in the fourth quarter of 2018 with sustained growth in prescription and refill rates; approximately 31,200 prescriptions in April 2019 (47,500 prescriptions in Q4 2018). In our view, increasing market share of Imvexxy will be meaningful to eradicate skepticism on commercialization.

Can any other treatment beat anti-VEGF in macular edema?

(Note: companies that could be impacted by the content of this article are listed at the base of the story (desktop version). This article uses third-party references to provide a bullish, bearish and balanced point of view; sources listed in the “Balanced” section)

Macular edema (ME) is an eye disease condition that causes the sudden or chronic decrease in visual acuity. The condition arises from fluid accumulation within the macula, an area in the center of the retina, leading to vascular instability and the breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier (BRB). Characterization of the diseases is made by the swelling and thickening of the macula distorting a person’s central vision, causing a decline in visual acuity and eventually could lead to blindness.

Major causes of macular edema include diabetes, branch and central retinal vein occlusion, choroidal neovascularization, posterior uveitis, postoperative inflammation and central serous chorioretinopathy.

Fluid accumulation results from an imbalance between processes governing fluid entry and exit, when inner or outer blood-retinal barriers are disrupted. ME can arise from various conditions:

1. 7 million subjects due to diabetes, called diabetic macular edema (DME)
2. 3 million subjects due to vein occlusion
3. 40% of visual impairment in patients with uveitis
4. 5% of individuals older than 60 years of age due to neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in industrialized countries

ME treatment is a rapidly growing market with an increasing elderly population, and people living with diabetes. The anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy has revolutionized the treatment landscape for ME providing benefit to patients, however 30-50% of patients don’t respond or develop resistance to anti-VEGF treatment and the opportunity still remains for the development of novel compounds.

• R&D
  Advancement. The company continues to make progression in
  establishing C1 expression production and the purification process in multiple
  projects. The Schmallenberg virus (SBV) as part of the ZAPI project exceeded
  the intended expression levels (17x), and is potentially the first to enter in
  human trials. We believe glycan engineering intended in 2019 could be
  transformational for the company.
• Corporate
  Updates. The proof of concept collaborations totaled nine projects,
  including two newly added agreements with large pharmaceuticals in Q1 2019.
  Dyadic continues to validate C1’s potential in biologic manufacturing, guiding
